Elizabeth Craft Designs- Pretty Bird Floral

Hello crafting friends!
Today I have a card that features one of my favorite little birds.

this beautiful bird's feathers.

the flowers have stamen inserted in the centers and I added yellow Prills to the budded
foliage.

Impression Obsession Color Challenge

Ok, I know these are different colors for Christmas but hey,
aren't we always coming up with something different?
I was at Hobby Lobby the other day and the fad is pastels for Christmas (like a baby's room pastel), ummm, I think I'm sticking with the good ol' Red and Green, there is just something nostalgic for this "older" lady about those colors.  But today I'm doing the color challenge and this is what I've come up with.


My purple frame is popped up.  I used Liquid Applique for the fur on her boots and the pompom on her hat.  The snow is a combo of Snow Pen and loose glitter.  Both of these products puff when you use a heat gun on them.

I have a container full of white brads, some of which are decorative so I used 3 different ones on my banners.
I used these Impression Obsession products:

Elizabeth Craft Designs- Fancy Edge Fall Floral

 Hello crafting friends!

I should make more of these "Slimline" cards, I just love the way they look!  It is finally fall and all my different fall asters are coming alive with color!  I have burgundy, pink, yellow, orange, a variety...I really love the extra burst of color this time of year!


I chose a nice bluish color for the barrel today, I love it withy the rusty bands.
I decided to make a fancy edge with gold and the "pumpkin" border die.  I used the bottom of this border die to make a fun edge on the back/inside of the card as well.

White card base
